    This enthusiasm for new knowledge can be attributed to the obvious reason that the government’s policy of Open-up to the World and particularly China’s access to WTO . These have given a fresh impetus to China’s trade and exchange with foreign countries. China’s trade volume with the world has, reportedly, reached an unprecedented $500 billion and cultural exchanges with other countries are being carried on an increasingly larger scale.
